Harley-Davidson’s Electric Motorcycle

Harley-Davidson recently showcased its first electric motorcycle during its Project LiveWire Experience. The event entailed a tour that proceeded down Route 66, stopping at over 30 cities. Prospective customers had the chance to test drive the handmade demonstration models and provide feedback to Harley regarding the models’ performance and their expectations. The feedback gathered during the event will help the company to refine the bike before releasing it for sale in a few more years.

Harley-Davidson’s investment in the new product constitutes a risk due to the relatively low demand for full-size electric motorcycles. However, with the growth of consumer interest over time, the new motorcycle will develop long-term potential. Performance is likely to end up being a greater selling point than environmental awareness.

The engine of the electric motorcycle is silent. Furthermore, the vehicle can go from zero to 60 miles per hour in around four seconds. In addition, its batteries last for around 130 miles, and charging them takes between 30 minutes and one hour.
